Known as the Wigfall House, the original section of this historic Victorian home for sale was built in 1856. Not long after, the Louis Trezevant Wigfall (1816-1874) family moved in. He was a “flamboyant political leader” who sided with those who wanted secession during the Civil War era. As a US legislator, US Senator and Confederate Senator, Wigfall often entertained Confederate officers in the home. Later owners made alterations in the Victorian vein.
